There were offering some deal recently. 90 days free or something. Several people on are street are now doing it.
We got the first year for $60. It included Paramount+ or Peacock Premium. The savings in time is very much worth it but I do shop for some things at Aldi or Costco that I don't want some minimum wage Walmart worker picking for me.

Their oatmeal cookies are pretty good (at least in southwestern PA).
Where is their cookie section besides the boxed cookies. Speaking of that; you can get girl scout knockoffs for about $1.49 per box, nutter butter type knockoffs and same for nutty buddy knockoffs. All I think are legit.

General area around the breads. In clear plastic containers with 10, not the ones having fewer and a “fancier” description. Usually have choice of chocolate chip, snickerdoodle, peanut butter, or oatmeal.

I’m picky. They used to not have raisins and were great, especially at $2/container. But, it’s been a few years since that. Think they are $3 now with the raisins.

Maybe a regional thing?

Topic adjacent but raisins masked as chocolate chips in an unlabeled cookie you bite into are the devil’s spawn. Very disappointing as a kid.

Here's my problem with the comment. You say the commented out one side of your mouth, while most likely saying they should be paid a "living wage" out of the other. So how do you solve the problem? Train the employee on how to identify the correct items the consumer wants?

GD, you had me at oatmeal cookie until you put the f'ing raisins in there. Cookies and fruit are not supposed to live together. Keep fruit with the bread family

I usually get the things I know and don't fiddle around. I'll take a look, thanks @Mufasa94

Those two comments are completely unrelated. One speaks to reality while the other speaks to the hope that the Walton family would do the right thing. No idea how you could conflate them.
